Wordless Wednesday #33 – 3 Boys & A Girl

September 17, 2008 by Elaine

I’ve posted this picture in honor of Steph over at Adventures in Babywearing. She gave birth to her sweet baby girl on Monday and she also has three boys. Congratulations Steph! : )

This post of hers reminded me of myself and my three brothers. I think I was around 2 years old in this picture so that would have made them 9, 14 and 12. And there’s our dog Pepper at the bottom left.

The good ole days…

P.S. Come back THIS FRIDAY when I will have a GIVEAWAY! : )

For more Wordless Wednesday go here. For more “Wordful” Wednesday go to Angie’s place, SevenClownCircus!

    WOW what a big age gap for you. My daughter is 9 and 10 years older than her brothers. And they look up to her. I love it!

    What a great photo of your family growing up. My uncle has three sons and then his little girl was born. Of course they are all grown up now (three out in the world and one just started high school). I am sure your brother took care of you like my cousins do for their little sister.

    Happy WW!

    I can tell you were the apple of the boys’ eye. Did they beat you up a lot, too? Oct 11th still good for you? I can’t get anybody else to respond.

    I love older shots. Isn’t it great to still have them? I only have one younger sister, and it looks like Mia will only have one younger sibling as well. A big family looks like it’s full of love 🙂

    Aren’t you adorable and what a great ode’ to Steph. I am sure you will be able to give her insight on how her daughter is going to feel having 3 older brothers. I just happen to follow her on twitter that night, so exciting.

    Look at your hair! So cute! 3 boys and a girl is really fun, hopefully 4 boys and a girl will be just as fun:)
